A course of lectures have been
spoken of here this winter. Whether
it will amount to anything more than

and we gladly welcome anything
which thus tends to elevate the peo-
pie.
Last Friday night the Way sisters
of No. Charlestown, N. H. assisted
by the talented young elocutionist,
Miss Mabel Huntoon, gave one of
their popular entertainments at Hotel
Hall. 1t was the finest musical en-
tertainment we ever attended. Miss
Annie Way, 10 years old, renders on
the violin some of the most difficult
compositions from the masters, intro
ducing the most brilliant phantasies
and the chords played across all the
strings. She was encored again and
again. Miss Anne Way, II years
old, played the piano as well as any
one we ever heard, and compositions
introducing the most difficult trills
and runs, one being played wholly by
the left hand, a thing which has never
before been accomplished except by
the composer. Perfect storms of APP
plause greeted this feat. Miss Ma
bel Huntoon, the elocutionist, is but
IS, but her rendering of her pieces
was the best we ever heard. Encore
followed encore in her case. We
commend this company to all who de-
light in classic music classically rem
dered.

The town is to have a library soon.
Considerable excitement has lately
prevailed among the farmers in this
and adjoining towns. Two weeks
ago last Sunday one of the fifteen
head of western steers purchased by
Way and Thomson was discovered to
be unwell, and on the following morn
ing was so nearly exhausted as to ne
cessitate slaughter. On the same day
two more showed symptoms of the
same disease and one more the day
following. Meanwhile two veterina-
rians were summoned, one from Rut-
land, the other from Keene, n. II.
and an examination of one of the
steers was made and the disease pro-
nounced to be pleuro-pneumonia.
The state cattle commissioners, Drew
and Bissell, were then sent for and
arrived Friday. On their arrival it
was expected that the cattle would
be put under quarantine, but instead
of this, after a careful examination
and dissection of one of the afflicted
animals by DR.. j. L. Page, state
veterinarian, there was declared to be
no indications whatever of pleuro-
pneumonia or any other contagious
disease, but simply a splenic fever
caused by heat and too rapid transit
from the West. These cattle, to-
gether with 50 more were brought
from the West by cattlemen in Hart
land and Claremont, N. H., from
which place they were bought by
Way and Thomson. Out of the 50
head several have died, most of them
in New Hampshire where DR.. Peters,
the well known vetinary surgeon from
Mass. The opinions of DR.. Page
and DR.. Peters, as to the nature and
cause of the disease is the same. As
yet only five of the steers belonging
to Way and Thomson have been
sick. OF these three have been
slaughtered, but two of them would
undoubtedly have recoved as one of
the steers that was sick at that time
and was as violently attached, has
fully recovered.
Messrs Way and Thomson are to
be commended for their activity and
promptness in the matter as it was as
first supposed to be Indignant dis
ease and if such had been the case il
would have rapidly spread unless eff
fective measures were taken.

FRANK Il. SPRING.

The community was never more start
led than on Friday morning when tele-
gram was received from Jamaica, contain
ing the sad and shocking information that
Frank T. Spring, well known young
man of this place and junior member of
the law firm of Martin 4 Spring had died
that morning at 5 o'clock at the hotel in
that place. Mr.. Spring left here on
Thursday afternoon in company with
Dept. Sheriff. A. C. Conner, to attend the
Windham County Court at Newfane.
He was in buoyant spirits, anticipating a
pleasant drive across the mountain and
hopeful of success i'll his professional du-
ties Those who saw him drive away that
afternoon little dreamed that the morning
would bring such sad intelligence. Mr..
Connor says they retired about 10 O'Clock,
Mr. Spring appearing in his usual health.
Mr. Conner was awakened about 3 O'Clock
by the heavy breathing of his companion.
Thinking he was having troubled sleep
name, but being unable to arouse him he
became alarmed and called for assistance.
A physician was sent for and Mr.. Con-
nor quickly returning to the room found
that life had departed. The news of his
pathetic end spread rapidly through his
native town touching every heart and
bowling every head with grief.
Frank 7. Spring was young man of
high character and good ability in his
chosen profession. He was student and
had good understanding of the law.
He had good judgement and common
sense. He was very intelligent and was
posted on all of the topics of the day.
Being great reader he was familiar with
| the works of nearly all the ancient and
modern writer's. He was fond of society
and unassuming, but with his most init
mate circle of acquaintance he was talk
ative and confidential. There was vein
| of quaint humOr in his make up; being
fond of merriment and quick at repartcc
he enjoyed harmless sally at his OWL
expense as much as if it We're at some one
else. He was true and loyal to his friends
respecting their opinions when differing
from him, for he had decided opinions OF
his own. He looked for the better traits
in others and gave due credit and was
more apt to excuse their faults than tc
criticise them. He had large heart an(
generosity was one of his prominen
traits. He was never happier than whel
in possession of good things he coult
share them with those he liked. He wa
close friend of the writer from child
hood. have seen him in all of his diff
ferent moods and never knew him to com
nit dishonorable act.
If life of high responsibility, if char
, acter, honesty, truthfullness and morality
if generosity and kindness of heart, i
self respect and respect for others, i
striving to follow the golden rule of doin
by others as you would have them do b
you, if all of these and other good quail
ties which he possessed count for any
thing, and no reasonable person doubts il
then Frank Spring has received his r,
ward. S.
